Frequency of lower third molars in four cities of Argentina

The mandibular third molar is the last dental piece to erupt in the oral cavity, and has a high frequency of anomalies in its eruptive process. The Winter classification (1926), which relates the third molar with the longitudinal axis of the second molar, facilitates the diagnosis and its surgical a...

Clasificación de Winter, Retención dentaria, Terceros molares, Prevalencia, Radiografía Panorámica The mandibular third molar is the last dental piece to erupt in the oral cavity, and has a high frequency of anomalies in its eruptive process. The Winter classification (1926), which relates the third molar with the longitudinal axis of the second molar, facilitates the diagnosis and its surgical approach. In this work we determined the frequency of the position of the lower third molars retained according to the Winter classification, in populations of the Argentine cities of Ushuaia (Province of Tierra del Fuego), Neuquén (Province of Neuquén), Selva (Province of Santiago del Estero) and Córdoba (Province of Córdoba) in order to know the statistics of the different geographical areas. A higher frequency of the vertical position was observed with 350 cases (51%), followed by the positions mesioangular (31%), horizontal (12%) and distoangular (6%). No inverted molars were recorded El tercer molar mandibular es la última pieza dentaria en hacer erupción en la cavidad oral, y presenta una alta frecuencia de anomalías en su proceso eruptivo. La Clasificación de Winter (1926), que relaciona el tercer molar con el eje longitudinal del segundo molar, facilita el diagnóstico y su abordaje quirúrgico. En este trabajo se determinó la frecuencia de la posición de los terceros molares inferiores retenidos según la Clasificación de Winter, en poblaciones de las ciudades argentinas de Ushuaia (Provincia de Tierra del Fuego), Neuquén (Provincia de Neuquén), Selva (Provincia de Santiago del Estero) y Córdoba (Provincia de Córdoba) a fin de conocer las estadísticas de las distintas zonas geográficas. Se observó una mayor frecuencia de la posición vertical con 350 casos (51%), seguida por las posiciones mesio-angular (31%), horizontal (12%) y disto-angular (6%). No se registraron molares invertidos.
